Brrrrrrr!

It has been a wee bit chilly around here! It makes our outings few and far between which tends to make me go crazy. But it's so cold that even a walk from the car to a store sounds miserable. I'm a pansy, what can I say? We got some snow last week and I was so desperate to get out of the house that Tatum and I went out to play in the snow. The intent was actually that I would be able to shovel while Tatum hung out so Brennan wouldn't have to shovel again when he got home from work. But it turns out that Tatum's boots have ZERO traction so she really couldn't walk without falling. So I spent the whole time helping her stay vertical and didn't get any shoveling done. It's the thought that counts right?

Here is Tatum all bundled up and looking so thrilled.

 She didn't mind as much once we got outside.

 We tried the back deck later, hoping it would be less windy. Sadly, it was not and we didn't last long.

 We turn our fireplace on sometimes too, especially for after Tatum's baths so she can stay warm while we lotion her and get her dressed. She is pretty good about not touching it (she just likes to point at the flames) thank goodness.

That's pretty much our life these days. Just trying to keep warm and sane at the same time. That can be a little tricky during the winter but so far I think we are managing okay. :)
